End Of Basque Home Rule In Spain
The end of Basque home rule or ''fueros'' in Spain was a process coming to a head in the period extending from the First Carlist War (1833-1840) to the aftermath of the Third Carlist War (1876-1878). It brought to an end the status of sovereignty coupled with allegiance to the Crown of Castile held by the different Basque territories for centuries. In the French Basque Country, home rule was abruptly suppressed during the French Revolution (starting 1790). The loss of home rule (''fueros'') was followed by the Basque Economic Agreement (1878), a period of shaky peace with occasional popular uprisings, like the ''Gamazada'' centred in Navarre, and the emergence of Basque nationalism. Background After the restoration of Basque institutions and laws with the comeback of King Ferdinand VII (1814), Spanish centralization did not cease. In 1829, the jurisdictional parliament of the kingdom (''Cortes'') reunited in Navarre, for the last time. In 1833, the accession of the liberals t ...

Fuero

Década Moderada
In the history of Spain, the ''década moderada'' (, "moderate decade") was the period from May 1844 to July 1854, during which the Moderate Party continuously held power. Rise to power The Moderate Party, like the Progressive Party it displaced, identified itself as liberal, but it was considerably more conservative than the Progressives. Whereas the Progressives had little ground for compromise with Carlism, the Moderate Party was in more of a position to cooperate with moderate elements from among the losing side of the First Carlist War, and the Convention of Vergara had allowed many of the latter to return to participation in government and politics. When the Moderate Party under General Ramón María Narváez first took power in May 1844, they inherited the progressive Spanish Constitution of 1837, and promptly set about revising it to be more in line with their principals. They wished to have a system that allowed certain liberties, but above all they wished to establis ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |

It includes the Basque provinces of Araba, Bizkaia, and Gipuzkoa. It surrounds two enclaves called Treviño (Burgos) and Valle de Villaverde (Cantabria).
